Comments/Problems:

   Initial boot doesn't work propperly
   need to do root=/dev/fd0 otherwise no boot possible

   Mounting can't be done throug the installe menu's
It always wan't to format the harddrive, or am I doning something wrong here?
got some errors while booting, I thinks this is my own fault, as I didn't format the disks, but just did a rm * -r afther mounting and before doing a base installation 

   Error1:
Warning: Your /etc/fstab does not contain the fsck passno field. I will kludge around things for you, 
    but you should fix your /etc/fstab file as soon as possible

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
